THE CHlMPANzEE QUESTION.

The Possibility of Great Crisis in Our
Political History-A Serious Outlook.
Now that the experiment Of training the
chimnanzee as a servant has been tried and
found successful a very grave question arises
before US, aud unless some immediate steps
are taken for its prevention very serious
evil is likely to result
Let Us suppose that things have been
allowed to take their own course and that we
are in the year 1881 Every dav cargoes of
chimpanzeeS are brought into the country and
sold as servants Mon in all parts Of the
country have seized upon this opportunity to
obtain cheap labor. and have expended time
and money in educating the chimpanzee, so
that now, at the end of q century of careful
training, he has almost reached perfection
A maiden lady III Boston discovered that the
ehimpanzee has arrived at such a degree of in
telliSence that he IS in every way the equal of
hls master She communicates this fact to
another maiden lady over a cup of tea The
other lady agrees with her, and they decide
that the chilupanzee is very much oppressed
The disease spreads rapidly, and in a short
time the maiden ladies of Boston hold meet
ing and pass resolution that the chimpanzee
must bs emancipated Men throughout the
country who have invested largely in chin
panzeeS, and are dependent upon them for
their livelihood are strongly opposed to this
measure: but the women of Boston are firm;
either the country must free the chimpanzee
and place hnn on equal footing with all other
citizens of the United tates or the women of
Boston win secede 1t is a great crisis in our
political history We may lose the great city
of Boston, and perhaps Massachusetts,. The
excitement throughout the country is intense.
Men talk of war Shall We again bear the
strain OF civil conflict: But the women of
Boston stand firm, Congress passes a bill of
emancipation and the president signs ii.
Thousands of men are ruined, but the chin
p;trzee Is free But Is the clIimpanzee happy I.

hundred years of education have deprived

WE ARE CHANGED.

We feel our love has long grown cold,
And yet we dare not own
That, day by day. silent change
Has DER our spirits grown.
We see it, though our eyes the while
Are blinded by our tears;
With words of former tenderness
We strive to mock our fears
But we are changed. We are not one,
As we were once of old.
oh, would to God that we had died
Before our love grew coldi
We've struggled hard against our fate,
Our hearts stil1 warm TO keep,
As wayworn men strive with the cold
That numhs them into sleep
We have net let one unkind word
The bitter truth reveal:
The world knows not. must never know,
What both of us now feel,
That we are changed We are not one,
As we We're once of old
Oh, would Ia God that we had died
Before our love grew cold
Bound, like the felon bound of yore,
Unto the litclcsS clay,
Linked 10 a love long dead, that shows
Each moment more decay
In secret we must hug our bonds,
Till death will set us free;
Iweep, my wife, to think that
Have forged these chains for thee.

As we were once of old
